The Living Word
Course Description: An in-depth study of selected books of the Bible. Study follows an inductive method to 1) discern what the text says, how it is said, and its literary style and context; 2) grasp its meaning through analysis of the author's purpose, the religious, socio-economic and political context of the text, and the message and fundamental principles presented; and 3) apply the lessons for personal life change.
Objectives of the Course:
- 1. To lead students to a deeper understanding of the Bible by doing in-depth study of the books of the Bible.
- 2. To create an environment that focuses on a real and meaningful relationship with our God.
- 3. To invite others into relationship with Him.
